The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl Chapter 1399: The Results Are Out Today

Shu Yu was completely stunned, "Weren’t the exam results supposed to be released tomorrow?"

Such a significant matter, concerning ng Yunzheng’s future, she, of course, couldn’t ignore.

She had been counting on her fingers when the exam would take place and when the results would be announced.

Yesterday she was still thankful that she had hurried over quickly, arriving before the results were out. She could see her teacher today and celebrate with him tomorrow.

But how did things seem different from what she had calculated?

ng Yunzheng laughed, "You must have been counting based on the ti in Dongan Province, right? Although the exam results co out around the sa ti, sotis there’s a one or two day difference between two places."

Shu Yu swallowed her saliva, "So, they really are out?"

"Yes."

Shu Yu imdiately beca excited, "You must have passed, so the officers delivering the news went to the small courtyard, didn’t they? Xia Yan, Xia Yan, hurry, let’s go ho."

Xia Yan wanted to as well, but the road was too congested.

The carriage barely moved, and Shu Yu nearly fainted inside.

ng Yunzheng said with amusent, "Calm down. At this hour, the officers delivering the news must have already been to the small courtyard. Perhaps there are many people outside, and if we go back now, we’ll probably be stuck at the gate."

"But..."

"I see it’s getting late, so why don’t we find a restaurant to eat sothing first? By the ti we finish eating, the road should be clearer."

Though Shu Yu was anxious, she could only follow his plan; they couldn’t get through the crowd anyway.

The group found a nearby restaurant, and as ng Yunzheng got off the carriage, he took out two curtain hats, one for himself and one for Shu Yu.

Shu Yu was a bit surprised to see him wearing one too.

Then she realized that earlier, when ng Yunzheng was the Top Scorer in the provincial exams, many people must have recognized him.

Now that the exam results were out, even though she didn’t know his rank, she could guess he would definitely be on the list, and his rank wouldn’t be low.

Wearing the curtain hat was to avoid being recognized and causing unnecessary trouble.

Shu Yu chuckled, got off the carriage, and walked into the restaurant.

The restaurant was also lively, and the staff ca over and said, "This way please, we have a special offer today, everything is 20% off."

Shu Yu exclaid, "Is there a happy event at your restaurant today?"

The staff chuckled, "Indeed, miss, are you new to the city and aren’t aware? Today is the day the exam results are announced. The third place scholar on the list had been staying at our restaurant for so ti. When the officers ca to deliver the good news earlier, our shopkeeper was overjoyed, so today there’s a discount on als."

Third place, ah.

The staff led Shu Yu upstairs, and in a short ti, many people were going up and down, especially nurous scholars, so exuberantly discussing sothing, others packing up dejectedly, seemingly ready to head back.

When Shu Yu reached the second floor, looking down, she saw soone in the middle of the hall talking animatedly, surrounded by many people.

Seeing her pause, the staff said, "That person is also a scholar who passed, ranking thirteenth, and is staying at our restaurant too. People around him are there to discuss and exchange knowledge, they’ve been gathering around him since the results ca out."

Shu Yu nodded, "Why haven’t I seen that third place Scholar?"

"The scholar went to express gratitude to his teacher after learning about his success, so he’s not at the restaurant now."
